Midnight Racing Club - GT500 Season 2: Rd.10 Nürburgring 24H 23rd Dec

[SkengD]

anyone up for practice ?

 

[nealcropper]

Ill be on about half eight skengd. Seems like everyone is having trouble here.

 

[SoopamanLuva]

Is left foot braking a special technique?
Soopa, could you share your setup from last season?

Unfortunately not as I didn't write them down, the only setup I will have is for the final race, since I still have the car

 

[TyrrellRacing]

Can't wait for this, I'm running low 1:40's consistently and should comfortably do 2 stops, the only nervy spot is the entry under braking to the hairpin. Sector 2 is by far the toughest IMO.

[TyrrellRacing]

my mistake 1:44's lol don't know where that came from.

 

[SoopamanLuva]

I thought you were running 53-54 SkengD, were they typo's!? did you mean 43-44? I'd be amazed if you were 10 seconds off the pace with all the practise laps you put in...

 

[SkengD]

my mistake 1:44's lol don't know where that came from.

oh , yes that sounds better .

almost scared everyone there , lol

hope to practice with you soon

 

[SkengD]

my mistake 1:44's lol don't know where that came from.

43-44 for me must of been a typo

Ill be on again around 8 pm
1 43 400 so far today

 

[nealcropper]

This is gonna look stupid but what setting adversely affects Tyre wear?

 

[adeadsnipermatt]

This is gonna look stupid but what setting adversely affects Tyre wear?

Toe and camber effect tire wear the most.

 

[nealcropper]

Does positive toe make it worse?

 

[adeadsnipermatt]

Positive and negative toe effect tire wear. But don't be afraid to use them if you need some toe. Just don't use toe in extreme increments like .50 try smaller like .15 and under... Just a rough estimate.

 

[phil bell]

Is left foot braking a special technique?

In this class of car I don't think so.
And I am stuck at 45.9.

 

[Taiga]

In this class of car I don't think so.
And I am stuck at 45.9.

Have not practiced since the other day, so my best is still a 44.7.

 

[SkengD]

Looks like there is gonna be a huge fight in the midfield this week

 

[phil bell]

Yeah have only practiced once after that so lacking seat time too.Btw Im home now what is your setup?

 

[SkengD]

Was watching the replay of the Nurburg race again , it was a real nice battle in the first stint with soopa and gprilli , hamilton spoiled the fun for soopa and put him into a fight with tyrell and allascato.

I say watch out for garagefather this race , he has had bad luck last 2 races , if he has good luck on his side he should have a good result.

 

[phil bell]

I just want to stay with you guys,I cannot find pace.
Going on now.
Off,running a locked diff helps abit but not much.

 

[SkengD]

Jus going on now , lounge open til bedtime

Checking to see if my times are the same in other lounges , trying to join gprillis lounge at the moment

Session ended

 

[nealcropper]

Be on about 9 UK time. Till late.

 

[SkengD]

Does anyone know if we will have to take on fuel during a pit stop at Grand Valley ?

 

[Dave1127]

Dunno, but what happens if you run out of fuel?

Do you just stop in the middle of the lap with no way of getting back to the pits etc?

 

[SoopamanLuva]

No you do 50mph max to get back to the pits

SkengD if you need fuel it will add some in the pits, just accept whatever it suggests, thats what I do

 

[SkengD]

Dunno, but what happens if you run out of fuel?

Do you just stop in the middle of the lap with no way of getting back to the pits etc?

one of the singapore guys ran out of fuel in suzuka , it cost him 4th place i believe

 

[nealcropper]
